Ok, I'm a newb to linux, but linux mint+beryl+wine+dosbox is awesome, and I'm loving it.

So far I've learned to do frequent backups, which have saved me multiple times, including this problem. Here's one that I can't seem to fix.

I have the notification of some firefox updates. Whenever I install the updates the mplayer plugin is destroyed. How do I update firefox and fix the m player plugin? Should I just not do the update? The only way I've fixed it so far is to restore my system from a backup, but them I don't' have the updated version of firefox.

What if you reinstall the mplayer plugin? Could be that during the Firefox update some files get overwritten so the new Firefox can't see the Mplayer plugin anymore. Reinstalling the Mplayer plugin would fix this I guess? I agree ... it's not the optimum solution.
